Dating in my 30s feels like navigating a sea of single moms—anyone else?

33M here. Lately, as I’ve been dipping my toes back into dating, I’ve noticed a trend—most of the women around my age who are single are also moms. Nothing against them at all, but after a past relationship with a single mom, I’ve realized that dynamic just isn’t for me.

I dated a woman when I was 29 (she was 34 with a 6-year-old), and honestly, it was a disaster. I felt like I had all the responsibilities of a father figure but zero say in anything. The kid’s behavior was rough, and anytime I tried to step in, I was the bad guy. The biggest issue? She constantly compared me to her ex—even though she claimed he was awful. It left me drained and, honestly, kind of traumatized.

Now, trying to get back out there, I feel… old. Like I blinked, and suddenly, everyone my age has a kid. It’s making dating feel way harder than I expected. Anyone else feeling this? How do you navigate dating in your 30s when you know you don’t want to be in a stepdad role?
